Providing the most advanced and capable autonomous vessels in the maritime domain. Backed by Bessemer, General Catalyst and Kleiner Perkins.
About the role
The Manufacturing Engineer – Piping & HVAC Detail Planning translates piping and HVAC system designs into the detailed, shop-floor-ready work instructions that production teams use to fabricate, assemble, and install these systems aboard autonomous surface vessels. This role defines how piping and HVAC systems are broken into spools and subassemblies, how those pieces are built and installed in sequence, and how they ultimately come together into a complete, functioning ship. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Hands-on experience in marine piping and/or HVAC trades (pipefitter, pipe welder, sheet metal mechanic, marine systems technician) or equivalent planning experience built on that trade background
- Understanding of pipe fabrication methods (bending, threading, welding, flanging) and HVAC ductwork fabrication and installation practices
- Working knowledge of how ships are built, including unit/block construction, erection sequence, and zone outfitting
- Ability to read and interpret isometric drawings, P&IDs, 3D models, and general arrangement drawings
- Strong written communication skills to produce clear, unambiguous work instructions

This role defines how piping and HVAC systems are broken into spools and subassemblies, how those pieces are built and installed in sequence, and how they ultimately come together into a complete, functioning ship.
Shipbuilding requires piping and HVAC systems to be planned around structural construction, access constraints, and the work of every other outfitting trade. The Manufacturing Engineer ensures fabrication and installation sequence, hanger and support design, and material handling are defined correctly the first time, minimizing rework and keeping systems installation on schedule.
This role works closely with design engineering, scheduling, quality assurance, and waterfront production teams to translate engineering...
